Podcast: 'Keith Price's Curtain Call' Celebrates Pride with Keith's Favorite Interviews
By: Keith Price's Curtain Call Jun. 28, 2019
Just in time for our 50th Anniversary of The Stonewall Riots that started the Gay Liberation Movement leading to the LGBTQIAA Community and countless numbers of PRIDE festivities happening all over the world, my podcast would like to take a moment and throw some love to some of the out and open performers working in theater today that have stopped by for a chat with me.
Having made those strides, even professions like acting and performing had been plagued by a sort of Lavender Scare of its own. Closeted performers hid and still do hide their identity in order to advance their careers. For many of us in today's world, it seems crazy to continue that charade.
So, for the few and proud who are letting their light shine, I want to take a moment and just say, "HAPPY PRIDE!!!" and "Hey, gurl, Hey!"
Gregory Allen- Playwright, Screenwriter, Author, Actor stopped by my show to talk about what was his latest project,HIDING IN DAYLIGHT. Since that conversation, he's turned that short play into a short film that recently celebrated a turn at the Cannes Film Festival. This particular piece speaks to the seemingly frightening place that our country MIGHT become. Usually he takes part in the annual Tony Predictions Show, but since he was at Cannes, he just sent his in via email. Please enjoy my conversation with this Out and Proud visionary.
